Nigerians have expressed their disappointment at not being able to watch the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, AFCON, on television after popular Sub-Saharan Africa pay TV service provider, Multichoice, announced they won’t be broadcasting the tournament on their DStv channels.

MultiChoice announced this on Wednesday, saying SuperSport Channel will not broadcast the 2023 AFCON because the channel has not secured the rights to broadcast the tournament.

This development is coming just nine days to the start of the tournament which will be held from January 13 to February 11 in Ivory Coast.
